17.12.2023
In a recent interview with state television, Russian President Vladimir Putin refuted U.S. President Biden’s previous statement that Russia would continue to attack NATO countries once it wins in Ukraine, calling it nonsense. He also believes that the West’s ultimate goal is to dismember Russia and use its vast resources to clean up China.
(Deutsche Welle Chinese website) Earlier this month, US President BidenCall on Republicans in Congress not to continue to obstruct military aid to UkraineAt that time, he warned that if Putin wins the Ukrainian battlefield, he will continue to attack NATO countries. Biden also said last year that a direct confrontation between Russia and NATO would trigger World War III.
An exclusive interview with Putin released by Russian state television on December 17 refuted Biden’s above statement. Putin said: “This is complete nonsense, and I think President Biden also understands this.” Putin also added that Biden seemed to be trying to defend his “wrong policy” towards Russia, “Russia has no reason and no reason.” There is no geostrategic, economic, political or military interest in fighting NATO.”
Putin has repeatedly viewed post-Cold War NATO expansion as Western countries’ arrogant disregard for Russia’s security concerns. He said,Neighboring Finland joins NATO in AprilForcing Russia to “assemble certain military units” near the border. According to Article 5 of the NATO Charter, an armed attack on any one member state is considered an attack on all member states and therefore activates the right of collective self-defense.
In the early morning of December 17, the port of Odessa in Ukraine was attacked by a Russian drone once more.

Many people worry that the goal of repelling the Russian army in the Ukrainian battlefield is unrealistic. Now, many officials in Russia and Western countries are beginning to talk regarding a “new Cold War.”
In the exclusive interview, Putin was also asked whether he might still find common ground with the West in this context. He replied: “The West has to find common ground because they have to take us into account.”
A senior U.S. State Department official who did not want to be named stated in November that Putin would not pursue peace negotiations before the results of the U.S. election in November 2024 are announced.
Putin said that Western countries failed to understand the extent of the drastic changes following the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991, which had eliminated the ideological basis for continued confrontation between Russia and the West. “I did have naive thoughts at the time, but the reality is that Westerners believed that following the collapse of the Soviet Union, it would only take a while to completely destroy Russia.”
The Russian president views the current armed conflict asThe larger fight once morest the U.S.Some believe that the goal of the United States is to dismember Russia, plunder Russia’s rich natural resources, and then turn around to deal with China.
